1 How wondrous the glories that meet
In Jesus, and from His face shine!
His love is eternal and sweet,
'Tis human, 'tis also divine.
2 His glory--not only God's Son--
In manhood He had His full part,--
And the union of both joined in one,
Form the fountain of love in His heart.
3 The merits and worth of His blood
Have freed us from hell and from fear.
That we, as the blest sons of God,
May make His good pleasure our care.
4 Oh then may this union and love
Make us walk in the service of Heaven
'Mid obedience and suffering to prove
That we to the Lamb have been given.
